Model 31是團結飛機公司於1938年開始設計的新型軍民兩用飛行艇。該飛機採用全金屬結構,具有高置、高展弦比懸臂的單機翼(戴維斯翼英语Davis wing,後來用於B-24[2]和位於頂部的後機身,同時具有雙尾翼。民用版本預計可容納52名乘客,或容納28名乘客的臥舖座位。

Model 31的原型機於1939年5月5日首飛,並展現出卓越的性能。1941年12月7日,日本偷襲珍珠港,美國隨即捲入第二次世界大戰,此時測試剛完成,美國海軍購買該原型機,命名為XP4Y-1,將其改裝為巡邏機,配備了機頭、機尾和機背砲塔以及4,000lb(1814kg)的外部搭載。

團結於1942年10月正式獲得200架P4Y-1的生產訂單,並在路易斯安那州紐奧良建造了一家新飛機工廠來製造該飛機。然而,由於原型機的準備進度延遲以及發動機的短缺 ,訂單最後被取消。而剛建成的工廠則轉而生產PBY
